Deceased porn performer who did not have an article while she was alive. Death is not a notable event. Counterfeit Purses (talk) 16:08, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Multiple news articles surrounding this person's death. Should not have been marked for deletion. 71.147.48.38 (talk) 16:40, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

And yet it was. Counterfeit Purses (talk) 16:50, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or merge to an appropriate "list of deaths" article. Looks to be WP:BLP1E for her death. Phönedinger's jellyfish II (talk) 16:49, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as per the jellyfish. All news coverage about her appears to be exclusively about her death.— Moriwen (talk) 17:11, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Only passes notability test because of death. Breaches. WP:BLP1E Jamesparkin (talk) 18:49, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Actors and filmmakers, Women, Sexuality and gender, and Florida. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 18:29, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
~~Question/suggestion (feel free to consider it's a !vote):~~ coverage being what it is, redirect to List_of_pornographic_performers_by_decade#Female_7. I've just added her name there (choose any of the numerous refs you might want to add). Note: I can't find any list of deaths that her page could be redirected to. Pornography in the United States might also be considered.-My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 19:49, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Why does it need to be redirected to anywhere? How is directing her name to a list that she isn't in helpful to a reader? Counterfeit Purses (talk) 19:57, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
She is in the list. Redirecting as alternative to deletion because coverage exists, allow me to repeat myself. -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 20:12, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
(Sorry I thought I had added her before to the list; did not publish the edit; just did it now) -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 20:21, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Mushy Yank She wasn't in the list when I made my comment. She won't be in that list if this article gets deleted. Counterfeit Purses (talk) 20:27, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with the first sentence, -again, my bad I had forgotten to publish her insertion- not the second: not all actors in the list have a standalone page (edit: on the English WP). -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 20:59, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You are free to disagree if you want, but that is a list of notable porn performers and Sophia Leone will be removed if this article is deleted. Counterfeit Purses (talk) 21:18, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, if you say so. -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 21:35, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Should be kept regardless of if her name shows up in some arbitrary list. FrostSpider (talk) 00:38, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Most sources are non-RS, the New York Post and others. I'm not sure why the Hindustan Times covers an article about her death from halfway across the world, when non-RS on this side of the planet ignore it. That strange sort of undisclosed promotional items in Indian media, that have no other coverage. Oaktree b (talk) 00:58, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Her death is notable in the sense that recently quite a few people with similar jobs have ended their lives. The pattern is notable. So Delete, but maybe cause for a meta topic? 95.96.130.127 (talk) 02:34, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Typical superficial 'mainstream' news coverage most porn performers get when they die. Most of the sourcing seems questionable as well. Nothing else out there of substance to create a better article. GoldenAgeFan1 (talk) 03:46, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm rather shocked she didn't have a page, considering she was one of the top performers in adult films in adult films in the late 2010's and very a brief time, was one of the top paid. The fact she didn't have one while she was alive was clearly an oversight. I say we keep her page and flesh it out better.

Because if what you said is going to be the standard, then there might be a couple of thousand pages that would be subject to deletion. Sportsfan1976 I'm only here because I'm not currently somewhere else. (talk) 12:07, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I understand the arguments from everyone here and I also wholeheartedly agree with the majority of the editors opinion on this article. Abishe (talk) 16:11, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Abishe So you think the article should be deleted? Counterfeit Purses (talk) 16:49, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Humanly I feel deeply sorry for her premature and unjust death, but as porn actress she never made the definitive leap towards undisputed notability, probably because she never engaged in scenes which could grant her relevant awards in the industry. -- Blackcat 21:59, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
